What does a high void ratio indicate about soil packing?
Think about how much space is taken up by voids.
What is the formula for void ratio?
Consider the parts of the soil sample.
What does a higher void ratio indicate about soil?
Think about how much space is occupied by air in the soil.
True or False: A high void ratio reduces the risk of liquefaction.
Consider what happens during seismic loading.
A site is assessed with a soil void ratio of 0.9. During a seismic event, what mitigation strategies should be considered?
Think about the relationship between void ratio and liquefaction risk.
